Our high-performing, customer-obsessed team runs on curiosity, communication, and accountability-working together to create exceptional experiences for our owners and guests. Whether solving big challenges, delivering outstanding results, or celebrating wins, we approach every day with purpose and passion. If you’re ready to join a mission-driven company where every teammate has the opportunity to thrive, Evolve might just be the place for you.\nWhy this role\nAs Senior Manager of Performance Marketing, you'll own Evolve's paid acquisition program end-to-end - the channel mix, the budget, the campaigns, the creative strategy, and the agency relationships - against a monthly qualified-lead target and a cost per qualified lead. You'll decide where an eight-figure annual media budget goes, and you'll be in the platforms making those decisions yourself. The timing matters; We're winding down a search agency contract and bringing that work in-house, which means you'll be rebuilding the program rather than inheriting a finished one. We're also opening channels Evolve has never run - so a meaningful part of the first year is zero-to-one work.\nThis is a senior individual-contributor role on a small, flat, high-ownership team. You'll lead through evidence and influence rather than headcount.\nThe team\nGrowth owns Evolve's owner-acquisition funnel from first impression to a signed agreement, across five programs: Attract, Convert, Launch, Nurture, and Foundations. This role owns Attract. It's a small team by design, which means less process, more surface area, and a direct line from your decisions to the company's number.\nWhat you’ll do\nChannel Strategy & Budget\n\nOwn paid channel mix and in-month allocation across paid search, paid social, programmatic, direct mail, AI search surfaces, and new test channels - strategy, campaign structure, bidding, budgets, pacing, and performance\nMonitor qualified-lead delivery against plan and forecast, diagnose what's driving it, and decide where the next dollar is most likely to generate efficient volume\nOwn the monthly spend and volume inputs to the marketing forecast, and re-plan in-month when delivery moves\nHands-On Campaign Management\n\nBe hands-on in the platforms. Google Ads and Meta are yours to build and optimize directly, not to review in a weekly deck\nBuild audience strategy across prospecting, retargeting, customer lists, lookalikes, and Evolve's own first-party data on properties, permits, and owners\nDesign and analyze structured tests across audience, creative, bidding, placement, geography, and landing destination\nNew Channels & Creative\n\nLaunch new channels from zero to one - Performance Max, connected TV, podcast, and an expanded direct mail program - with a plan for how each will be measured before it spends\nDevelop paid creative strategy with our creative partners: messaging, format, testing frameworks, and the analysis that decides what scales and what gets cut\nMeasurement & Partnership\n\nHelp us build a real read on instrumentality and on the offline channels we currently can't see, and partner on the attribution work behind it\nPartner with analytics, product, and sales on the full funnel from impression to signed agreement\nWhat makes you a great fit\n7+ years in performance marketing or digital media buying, with hands-on ownership of paid search and paid social campaigns\nProven experience owning and scaling paid acquisition against CAC, CPA, cost-per-qualified-lead or profitability goals at eight-figure annual media spend\nDeep platform expertise in Google Ads and/or Meta - campaign structure, bidding, budget pacing, audience management, creative testing, and optimization\nExperience setting strategy for an external media agency and holding it accountable on execution, including transitioning work in-house\nOwnership of forecasting - the monthly spend and volume inputs to a marketing plan, and the judgment to re-plan mid-month when delivery moves\nStrong analytical skills - you're comfortable in SQL and a product analytics tool, you interpret channel and funnel data yourself, and you make investment decisions\nExperience developing or executing paid creative strategy - messaging, format, testing, and analysis - in partnership with creative teams or agencies\nAI-native working style - you already use tools like Claude for analysis, creative iteration, and reporting; this is a baseline here, not a differentiator\nCompensation\nFor this role, compensation is based on a base salary plus a department variable annual bonus. Our base salary range is $160,000-$190,000.\nLocation \nAll Evolve team members must live in one of our approved locations by their first day.
